FS - OEM Shocks with Eibach Sportline lowering - Atlanta

I’M CONVERTING A MODIFIED 2013 FR-S BACK TO A DAILY DRIVER. BECAUSE OF THAT, I’M SELLING A FULL SET OF STRUTS WITH EIBACH SPORTLINE LOWERING SPRINGS ALREADY INSTALLED. I DIDN’T WANT TO FOOL WITH SPRING COMPRESSORS SO I BOUGHT A USED OEM SET OF STRUTS OFF OF EBAY AND SWAPPED THEM OUT ONE FOR ONE.

THINK “PLUG & PLAY” WHEN IT COMES TO THESE. THEY CAN END UP SAVING YOU MONEY OVER HAVING THE SPRINGS CHANGED OUT BY A MECHANIC. IF YOU CHANGE THEM OUT YOURSELF YOU CAN HAVE YOUR CAR LOWERED AND READY TO DRIVE IN A FEW HOURS.

I’VE CHECKED MANY OTHER LISTINGS AND FIND THAT THE STRUTS ARE THE SAME FOR THE BASE MODEL FR-S FROM 2013 TO 2015. IF YOU FIND ANYTHING DIFFERENT, PLEASE CORRECT ME.


$375 WITH SHIPPING INCLUDED, EXCEPT AK & HI.

I'm saying that it appears(to me) that the seal is broken. ie: just cut down the side. but I could be wrong. purely speculation based on what I can see on my part.


OP?

But why keep the straps?? Once they are broken they are useless so why bother try and tape them on?

I'm saying they were taped on before he got them. He simply didn't peel the tape off.

Sorry about that. I'll get you some new photos later today. Those were taken back in January, so it was a little hard to go back in time and include the proper notation.

Just take a pic next to your car to show how much lower the spring it'll get. Rule states one of the photo have to have that paper with info on it. Not every photos
